Solidarity and not slavery, adoration after encounter
Ecclesia Christi Midweek
Homilies
Father Justin extends Paul’s plea for Philemon to free his slave, Onesimus, to Christians everywhere to stand in solidarity against modern forms of slavery. Father Brendan shares his homily from Thursday’s opening Mass at a local high school with some thoughts on adoration and encounter, the latter of which must precede the former.
Witness
In “Light Unto Light,” Claire Arnold recounts her journey of “figuring it out” after resigning from her University’s nursing program against the wishes of many.
